It's international e-waste day, a reminder of the growing global issue that e-waste represents. Our recently published evidence-based report for Australian Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment, a collaboration between Lifecycles and Iceni, estimated that in Australia we collectively produce over 520,000 tonnes of e-waste every year.
Read the 'E-product Stewardship in Australia' evidence & executive reports, and be part of the Department's engagement to identify solutions for the better environmental management of Australia’s electrical and electronic equipment.
For the more adventurous, the underlying model developed during the project is also available. We are very proud to have been part of this project and hope that we will be able to keep this model alive by feeding it new information as they arise and to help us keep track of our progress on this issue over time.
